Advent Calendar 3.7
Saturday, December 20th, 2008Week Three: Joy: Day Seven
As we leave this week and enter the last and final week of Advent, our feelings of joy at Jesus’ birth turn to worship of Him, the promised one.
Matthew 2:11a
And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshipped Him.
(You can hear it here.)
Angels From the Realms of Glory
Angels from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.Shepherds, in the field abiding,
Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light:Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.Sages, leave your contemplations,
Brighter visions beam afar;
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star.Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.Saints, before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear;
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear.Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.All creation, join in praising
God, the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore your voices raising
To th’eternal Three in One.Come and worship, come and worship,
Worship Christ, the newborn King.
